The buzzing sound does not originate from the vibration of matter, but is a requiem played directly at the soul level.

It penetrated the solid rock and ignored the defensive barriers. It was like invisible steel needles, piercing the depths of the will of every ninja present.

Those with weaker strength were already trembling with tremors, and it was extremely difficult to even stay standing. Only the increasingly clear Bone Imperial City and the billions of Scarlet Eye in the silver-black light stream were left in their eyes.

Xuan stands at the absolute center of this spiritual storm.

His robe moves automatically without wind, his long hair dances wildly, and the mysterious Divine Seed between his eyebrows is beating slightly with a very vital rhythm.

His body sense has long transcended the ordinary world, and he can clearly "see" waves of invisible pressure, with Naka River Shrine as the center, spreading like a tsunami towards the entire Shinobi World continent.

On his system interface, the data flow is refreshing at an unprecedented speed.

[Analyzing "Six Paths-level combat instinct"... Progress 77%...85%...99%...]

[Analysis completed. Deeply attuned to host soul...]

Countless offensive and defensive concepts that transcend the ninjutsu system of this world, as well as gaming techniques at the level of the law of cause and effect, poured into his sea of consciousness like a galactic river.

It is no longer a simple move or technique, but a kind of "authority" that is above the battle, an absolute intuition that can penetrate and intercept all the enemy's movement trajectories.

However, Xuan was not in a hurry to put this new power into practice.

He slowly closed his eyes and allowed the terrifying aura originating from higher-dimensional existence to be released without reservation.

He knows very well that in the face of absolute power, the heart of the enemy is always the first to collapse.

Fear is a more effective weapon than any ninjutsu. It can make the most elite warriors lose the entire war before even swinging their swords.

At the same time, on a high tower far away from the center of the altar, Chiyo Saori looked grim, and his hands and fingers seemed to be integrated with the threads in the void.

In front of her, twelve "Silent Puppets" with dark bodies and strange shapes flashed red in their eyes and instantly entered the "resonance amplification mode".

They are not combat units, but top-notch spiritual signal base stations.

On the ground under the puppet's feet, countless shimmering runes lit up and quickly connected into a piece, cleverly capturing, encoding, and finally converting the energy of the earth veins around the shrine that was extremely disordered due to the tearing of space into an invisible and qualityless low-frequency spiritual signal.

This signal is like a ghost hand, accurately touching the intelligence centers located in every corner of Five Great Nations.

Whether it was Anbu of Fire Country, "Cloud Dispatch" of Land of Lightning, or the liaison falcon of Sunagakure, all the channels responsible for delivering the highest order experienced strange delays and errors at this moment.

The senior officials of various countries who were sitting attentively, waiting for information from the front line, suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation in their hearts.

As long as they close their eyes for a moment, a distant Bell Resonance sound will sound in their ears as if it comes from eternity ago, followed immediately by a majestic and indifferent whisper, echoing directly in their minds:

"The king has returned to the throne, how can you dare to claim the throne?"

Chiyo Saori looked at a real-time monitoring scroll in his hand. The emergency communication interruption rate between major ninja villages instantly increased by 30%, and the corner of his mouth curled up with a cold arc.

"Aren't we going to have a joint meeting? I want to see how you can discuss countermeasures when you can't even write a complete agenda."

Almost at the same time, in a secret outpost at the junction of Land of Wind and Fire Country, a silent replacement was completed.

Baba Tesshin, who was lurking here under Xuan's order, like a ghost blending into the shadows, quietly replaced a core communication crystal used to contact Konoha High Command with another imitation that had the same appearance.

Inside this new crystal, there is a micro-rune array etched with Divine Tree cells as ink.

That night, Hidden Leaf Village command and Shikamaru Nara had just issued a precise tactical coordination order to the border troops through this crystal.

However, the moment the command was issued, instead of receiving the expected confirmation, the crystal suddenly erupted with dazzling blood.

The tactical map projected in the center of the command room was instantly covered by a completely different picture--

In the picture, Xuan Zheng is sitting lazily on a throne piled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, with the Bone Imperial City suspended in the sky behind him.

And at his feet, dozens of powerful men who had been summoned by Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu and once powerful Shinobi World were kneeling on their knees, chanting in unison the long-lost Uchiha Clan forbidden mantra in an ancient and hoarse tone.

The cold chakra mixed with the aura of Divine Tree actually filled the entire command room through the projection of the crystal!

"What's going on!"

"The signal was hijacked? No, it was reverse injection!"

"This smell... is the main force already infiltrated?!"

The entire command room instantly fell into unprecedented chaos and panic.

Shikamaru Nara's brain was running rapidly, but he found that all the intelligence links became untrustworthy at this moment.

The enemy didn't even launch a substantive attack, but it had already put Hidden Leaf Village's proud command system into a state of semi-paralysis.

Shinobi World's counterattack is not without its consequences.

Kumogakure and Iwagakure jointly dispatched a top assault team composed of four Kage Level strong men. They bypassed the frontal battlefield and used secret techniques and Earth Release to attack Naka River Shrine's energy source with thunderous momentum.

Their goal is clear and fatal - to destroy the altar that maintains the rift in space.

However, just when they were about to break through the last layer of defense and step into the altar, a sudden change occurred!

The ground shook violently without warning, and nine huge red crystal light pillars rose from the ground, instantly covering the four of them in a mysterious formation.

A closed barrier was formed in an instant, cutting off all connections between the inside and outside.

Xuan's calm voice seemed to sound from all directions and from every spatial dimension at the same time:

"You have come just in time. A great change always needs witnesses. And you will be the first sacrifice to the new order and witness the birth of its laws."

The moment the words fell, nine red crystal pillars burst out with a dazzling light that could evaporate everything.

But the strange thing is that there is no destructive power in the light, but it contains an irresistible law of time.

The four Kage Level experts in the raid team, whether it was Lightning Release's ultimate speed or Dust Release's decomposition power, all lost their meaning at this moment.

Their bodies and thoughts were instantly frozen in the cracks of time, like insects in amber, maintaining the position they had at the moment before the attack, unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, an even more terrifying scene happened.

Their chakra, their consciousness, and even the concept of their existence are being slowly stripped away by an invisible force, turning into shining golden "law inscriptions" floating in the air, and automatically gathering and imprinting on an illusory code that is slowly taking shape in the center of the barrier.

On the high tower, Chiyo Saori witnessed all this. She controlled a specially prepared puppet and slowly walked towards the edge of the barrier.

The chest of this puppet is inlaid with an insignificant fragment peeled off from Xuan's Bipolar Crystal Core, forming a pseudo-core.

On the surface of the core, there are exactly the same mysterious lines as those deep in Xuan's right eye.

"Mimetic projection, start."

Following her instructions, the puppet's aura suddenly surged, and its figure briefly transformed into Xuan's appearance in the distortion of light and shadow. Even the pressure of dominating the world was perfectly imitated.

Subsequently, under the gaze of countless prying eyes from afar, this "Xuan's clone" was detonated by Chiyo Saori without hesitation!

Boom--!

A violent explosion far exceeding S-class ninjutsu swept across a ten-mile radius, and the terrifying shock wave plowed the earth into a bottomless ravine.

However, the image of "Xuan" being wiped out in the explosion remained in place for a long time due to the extreme concentration of energy.

This is undoubtedly announcing a cruel fact to the entire Shinobi World: even an insignificant clone has the power to easily crush your top combat power.

No one knew that in the deepest part of the altar, Xuan sat cross-legged without moving from beginning to end.

The silver ring that combined Bipolar Crystal Core and "Eye of Rebirth" was floating above his head, slowly absorbing the last remaining data from the seven destiny crystals.

A system prompt that only he could see quietly appeared in front of his eyes:

["Crimson Eye Edict·The First Commandment" is generated: Anyone who disobeys the will of the new king will have his or her life track immediately cut off from the causal level.]

Xuan slowly opened his eyes, which were a pair of red pupils that reflected the birth and death of all things.

He gently stroked the warm Divine Seed between his brows and whispered to himself, "Next, I no longer need to take action personally. Because the rules themselves are the sharpest knife."

At this moment, at the end of the mountains far away from the Naka River, an ancient ancestral temple of the Uchiha Clan that should have been completely reduced to ruins in Third Shinobi World War, the scattered broken walls and ruins actually began to vibrate, levitate, and reorganize on their own.

On the weathered and broken stone plaque at the main entrance of the ancestral hall, a brand new Ouroboros mark exactly like Divine Seed in Xuan Meixin is emerging on its own from the peeling stone chips, emitting an ominous red light.

The laws of this continent are being rewritten from the ground up.

All the common sense, strength and order that the strong men of the old era relied on have become fragile and vulnerable in the face of this new voice.

For the first time, an unprecedented, deep-seated sense of powerlessness came to the hearts of those giants who were accustomed to wielding power in the world.

They realized that in the face of such an existence that was almost equivalent to a "walking natural disaster", any conventional warfare methods had lost their meaning.

The life and death of the entire Shinobi World may hang on a thread, depending on a decision they have never thought of and are extremely unwilling to make.
